It would seem that Reynolds, (actor at the �Broadway� and do-
miciled here,) being desirous of borrowing a pair of nether ha-

veto, and the voice which I once heard in Philadelphia,
in Juliet�s love-empassioned speech was exalted even to letting
the dwellers on the adjacent floors know that �Bill Reynold�s�
should not have those pants � they had been purchased with her
money, and she would destroy them ere his request should be
granted!

{1. Monday A week having passed, I cannot recollect

come to mind. Wrote long letter to Boutcher, to George
Bolton, and to Dillon Mapother (in reply to a pleasant
letter received from him, dated Rome.) Called at Millers.
